Sold for 25 Emblem of Valor in Dalaran.

For a hunter this ring, along with Sealing Ring of Grobbulus is probably the best ring combination for a melee dps'er whos hit capped. Not sure where expertise falls in terms of melee dps, but from a hunter's perspective there isnt anything that beats this. That's where I'll be spending my tokens as soon as I get enough.

Please note, this ring does NOT make you Invincible. This is quite misleading as i tried to solo Illidan wearing only this ring. and he still was able to kill me.

Also, dont get $%^&y in PVP with it either >.>

This is one of the best hunter rings, and it is not really that hard to get. Most servers are even pugging Naxx25 AND killing bosses! Though... your best bet is to have a good guild and run Naxx25 weekly.

If you cant get 25man raids... then there is a nice JC ring (Titanium Impact Band) which you can get made... if you farm the mats it wont cost more than about 800g (which is what... 4 days of meduim/heavy farming) becuase you need the 4xDragon's Eye which can only be bought by jewelcrafters.

There are other great hunter/rogue rings out there too which are not at all hard to get your hands on... like... Hemorrhaging Circle which drops from heroic Gun'drak... this is "arguably' not the best of hunter rings as it has expertise which does nothing for a hunter, so might be polite to pass to a melee DPS who would benifit more... but if you are like I was and ran with a mage and 2 pally's then you might be able to get this one without any debate. NO ONE CAN ARGUE that the +agi and +AP are not AWESOME for a hunter.

I get myself into weekly pugs for Obsidian Sanctum and The Vault of Archavon. Once in a while I score a spot in a Naxx pug, which, for at least plague and arachnid is *gasp* Easier than 10 man Naxx.

If you can get yourself into the two single boss raids and at least a pug for Arachnid this ring is Not out of reach, at all. I'm 9 badges short at the moment, so by my calculations, unless I miss one of the raids next week it will be sitting pretty with the rest of my gear.

There really isn't a ton of gear for a hunter to buy with valorous badges currently. The crafted epic cloak is not a huge downgrade from the badge cloak if you are SV or MM, the boots are in fact, very nice and Tier is Tier. That will take a while.

In the end it is up to you how you spend your badges but for hunters hungry for haste (MM and SV) you should seriously consider getting this ring.

This is the second best Hunter Ring in the GAME as of 2-19-2009 and only costs 25 Emblems of Valor.

The only sucky thing is that it's UNIQUE and you can't equip two at once.

WTF are you waiting for? Go get IT NOW.

BTW - this is +7 base AP, +9Crit % BETTER then the Band of Kirin'Tor, so save your gold and just farm 25 badges for this.

It almost sounds like this guy is trying to convince you it's okay for him to roll on it, except oops, it's an Emblem of Valor vendor item.

Comment by chucmedic

its one of the BIS for ret pallys too.only the naxx25(saph and faerlina) rings and the expensive kirin tor rings are better.these along with the bracers are the 1st thing a ret pally should aim for with 25 man badges.

Comment by Bubbers

This information is old... there are much better rings available for melee now, including ret.

Comment by Naris17

Anyone else find it odd that an item with the word invincibility in the name isn't a tank ring?

Comment by malrion

as it is quite hard to find good rings (and to a lesser extent cloaks) as a hunter this is very worth downgrading your conquest emblems while gearing up. i actually changed in total 50 badges of conquest to valor for this ring and the valor cloak to get near my epic achief, cant go anywhere without it these days. part of this is becuase i got lucky and got the sarth25 helm and didnt have to spend them on the conquest helm tho
